The most successful countries are the most homogenous
Re: “Need more sensible arguments”, Have Your Say, October 2.
I hereby nominate Dr Frankfurt-School for the 2017 Have Your Say Liberal-Fascist Bigotry Award. Not a day goes past, it seems, without this bloodstained dinosaur rearing up from his foetid, globalist swamp to spread toxic, beetroot-coloured, verbal diarrhoea across the hallowed columns of Have Your Say. Okay, that’s the reciprocal niceties over with, so what’s he ranting on about this time?
“History is replete with failed experiments in ruinous nationalism,” he blithers. Now just a minute, Dr Frank... History is somewhat more replete with disastrous experiments in globalisation. Think of the USSR, the Roman Empire; think of Napoleon’s and Hitler’s attempts to create a global Europe and think of today’s slow-motion train-crash which is the EU.
And if we take a look at Catalonia, Kurdish Iraq, the former Yugoslavia, Tibet, Indonesia, Malaysia, Myanmar, the southern Thai provinces, and just about every country in Africa, we find communities united by heritage, culture, religion, ethnic origin, tribe and/or language struggling to manage their own affairs without interference from outside. “Failed experiments” in many cases, yes, because their attempts at self-determination threaten the power elites and they are crushed – witness last weekend’s violence in Barcelona.
As Clara Holzer explained last week, it is a simple fact of nature that humans (like animals) want to live with their own kind, and that’s why nationalism will ultimately win over globalism. With regard to all this diversity and globalist nonsense that the cultural Marxists seek to ram down our throats, I encourage Dr Frankfurt-School to inspect a map of the world and ask himself which countries are most free from internal strife. The answer is those with the least diverse and most homogeneous populations. Jean-Jacques Rousseau recognised that 250 years ago.
Yes, we certainly “need more sensible arguments”, and if any were ever to emanate from Dr Frank’s beetroot patch, it would be a fine day indeed.
